IDK if they are; IDC if they are; or how much or even if I really am... the guys I work with best, wouldn't mind talking to me if I was hot, or ugly. I'm a blue collar joe; aside from the facet you see.

I've heard of it before. I have no idea if it applies to me though. I don't view myself that way and I feel like if I were to walk around proclaiming that my being single is because i'm too hot, well wouldn't that make me more than just a little conceited? and guess what? Conceited guys? Totally not hot

It's a paradox---once you admit to being hot, you're no longer hot.

Wow, this is like Schrodinger's cat or something.

fuck...that was a horrible experiment. he'd have his license revoked today, heheh.

I had a guy once who I saw in a bar and I gave him the "fuck eye" not like you wanna have sex, but the "hey, I'm interested" look..He looked for like two seconds, then looked away to talk to his friends. I assumed he wasn't interested and moved on, later that night they had karaoke at that bar, and me being a singer--I sang (very drunkenly I may add). As I got off the little stage, he smiled and said, you were great and we started talking from there. I told him later, that I had gave him "the eye" before, but since he looked away I thought he wasn't interested. He said, "Nooo! I was very interested! I was stalking you down the entire night, but I got intimidated by you, and thought you were one of "those" guys. But after seeing you sing, I got a better sense of your personality.... and my friend pushed me to say something..lol"

So I guess it does happen. I know plenty of guys I get too intimidated to talk to, but most times that's just a fear of being rejected thing.

I can feel the precise moment when a man shuts down on me and turns tail, and it's usually when my vocab puts him off or because I tend to physically dwarf most men. I also suspect that many is the man who equates being soft-spoken and well-mannered with not being "masc."

Not sure if that's the same thing, but it does happen more often than it doesn't.
